Scientists Discover 4 Crore Years Old 1000 km Long River System in Antarctica

Geologists have found a discovery in Western Antarctica that has shocked the world. The 40 million year old river water flow system has come out here. This river system is found covered under ice sheet. Scientists are saying that about 1 thousand kilometers long river flowed here millions of years ago. The surprising thing is that at that time there was such a big climate change on the earth that changed the form of the planet. This discovery is said to be the biggest discovery in history regarding changes in the season of the Earth. To search Science Advances In a journal called (via) Published. According to Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research, according to Johann Klages of the study, if we want to understand the maximum impact of climate change on earth, then we should learn from the biggest incidents in history.

The biggest change in the atmosphere of the Earth was in the era called EOcene, 4.4 million years ago from 3.4 crore. At that time, the amount of carbon dioxide is said to be double even from the present time. Scientists are saying that if the level of carbon continues to rise due to greenhouse gases for the coming 150-200 years, then the carbon dioxide of that time will be collected on the earth.

After the climate change that took place 4 million years ago, when the carbon levels gradually started decreasing, glaciers started to be built on the earth. At present, most of the Western Antarctica is pressed into the snow. Therefore, it is difficult to gather information about the rocks buried under it. It is difficult to guess the atmosphere of that time without studying without rocks.

In 2017 too, Johann Klages and his team set out on a similar campaign. After drilling a depth of 100 feet in the sea level, the team found evidence of rocks of two different eras. When the half -life of radioactive elements was measured, the lower remains were found to be 8.5 million years old. These were reported to be related to the mid -critical period.
